Oil on canvas
This is a work of geometric abstraction inspired by an unexpected moment of illumination during a trip to Florida. The painting translates the memory of watching a stunning sunrise from a side-facing room at the Oceana Palms resort.
The composition is split by a powerful, angular, black structure representing the architecture of the building.
The small, zigzagging streaks of yellow at the bottom capture the fractured, momentary reflection of the sun on the water’s surface, completing this study in light, architecture, and the beauty found in an oblique, non-traditional view.
